But first—i need to clarify something." He states.Huh—"The engagement with Athena is no longer valid." Huh—what?As if the shock wasn't enough, he seriously adds. "Let's get married instead."Am i—dreaming?A huge gust of cold breeze slams into my face. Confirming the reality of the situation."But—but—didn't you plan to just deceive the queen before?" My thoughts are in jumbles which directly affects my speech. "What about the plan to go our separate ways?""That was before." He says without a change in his expression. "My feelings have changed, so has the plan."Wnat—what no."Can you really just cut off the engagement with Athena like that? What about the queen?" I say with complicated feelings.She wouldn't allow it will she? After all, she doesn't likes me."You don't have to worry about her." He assures.Why? Why not?!!"Uh—uhm is it really possible for us to get married? Like....me and you....I mean I am just human—and you are a prince, there are literally power dynamics in

Clothes?I don't need much.I look around the room with the small, bag pack that I left the pack with before.Around every corner in the room is literally things that belongs to me. The double pink pillow Emiliano got for me cause his was too hard. He also got a chair cushion of the same color.And there is the teddy bears we won from the park. At the corner of the bed is the neon, electric lamp that Ruby got for me. She also got me a lot of things like scent candles, plushies and some more I had to solemnly decline before she took them away.There are even more of my things than Emilliano's.I really wish I can take them with me. Just so I can remember these people.But—I look at the bag in my hand. It really is too small.What do I do? Do I take a bigger bag?But that will make it easier for me to be detected.I plop on the bed and lie flat. Letting the familiar scent of Emilliano surround me.Although I have never acknowledged it, the fresh, after rain scent has slowly become my

The moment I am out of the queen's palace, I quickly rush back to my room.I can't let her arrangements ruin my plan of escaping. I need to leave today!I sit on the bed, hugging the small bag back in my arms.Time tick by slowly, and I keep glancing at the small, pink clock next to the bed.The moment the small hand is on the number nine and it is just twenty minutes before the count of ten, I stand up. Taking a survey glance around the room.This will be my last time here.I place the letter I wrote inside the closet, which is not easy, and also not hard to find.I strap the bag on my back, walk out of the door with tensed nerves, and proceed to walk towards the direction of Ruby's room, hoping I can fool whoever I don't know is watching.Taking in a deep breath, I glance around secretly from the side of my eyes before swerving into a dark corner.I enter into the utility room Emilliano took me to last time, change out of my outfit and into a different one, put my bag into a already

My vision is met by a bland darkness when I open my eyes.The rough feeling of the hard, uneven ground against my back inflicts a sharp pain on my spine, and I shuffle for a while before been able to sit upright.It takes about a minute for my eye sight to adjust to the blinding dimness in the room I am in.The ceiling goes high, a natural curved surface without any colour. Looking around the tomb like space gives me the same feeling as when I was in my basement room at Alpha Luke's pack.I drag myself to my feet, the light dizziness weighing on my shoulder.The last thing I remember is that I was on my way to my escape from Emilliano. And then—i scrunch my brows, racking my head.And then—footsteps—Someone came from behind me and that is where it stopped.The air has a messy smell of dust and age, from the corner I am, I can faintly make out the shape of a square shape—chamber like thing in the middle of the room.It gives off a weird feeling and I wouldn't be needing the alarms g

It's been two days that I have been locked here.Everything feels like a dream.It's hard to believe what Athena's father said about the blue rose illness and it's relation with the sirens.If it is true, then did Alpha Luke know?He said he couldn't save her, that there was no cure to the blue rose illness—or he just lied.If letting my mom go back to the sea would save her why didn't he?Why did he let her die that son of a bitch!!He must have known. He did know.He killed her.I close my eyes pressing down on the swirling thoughts in my head.Those doesn't matter for now.I need to get out here first, and then—i will drag that bitch to death with me.Knowing that there will be no one coming to my rescue dims my chances of ever leaving here alive.Since I packed my things with me everyone must be thinking I ran away. Well I did. But see where it landed me.Maybe I shouldn't have run away. I should have just told Emilliano and—"Huh—forget about it. It is too late to show regrets."

I open my eyes at the sound of the noisy creaking of the door.Gaze darting around in a daze.Huh—I wipe my sore eyes, sitting up. I must have fallen asleep while crying."My lady are you awake?" I hear Athena's father's voice from outside the door.I stay still, hesitating on what to do."If you dont come out, I will have no choice but to come in myself my lady." He says as if knowing I am awake.Right. With his werewolf senses I am sure he can tell.Reluctantly, I drag my weak body down the bed and slowly move to the door.He was standing there, a blank expression on his face as he says. "I hope you had a good rest my lady."I ignore him, merely standing still.If only I can find a way to—"My lady it will be better if you willing cooperate and don't think of escaping." He stares straight at me as if could read my thoughts.And what am I supposed to do? Offer myself?"Don't worry. It will be over before you know it." He states.Should I be happy about that.Once again, we return to

Third person's pov.As the dark witch continued reciting the spell he started to notice that something was wrong.'This—this, why was her blood burning with a dark blue glow?'His eyes widen, fear pumping into his veins as he stepped back in shock. "Ro—Ro—royal blood!!"Athena's father, Lord lugard frowned from behind him. "What do you mean?""It is unmistakable." The dark witch grimace. "This siren woman is one of the clans royal blood!!"Royal blood?Who didn't know how protective the sirens were of their kind? Now that she wasn't just any siren but of royal blood it will only make the matter a 100 times worse.Although shocked, lord Lugard refused to back down. Not now.It was almost done. A little more and he would have his beloved back."Continue.""What!" The dark witch gave a high pitch squeak, the sound of his own voice causing him to cringe. "This cannot be done. The moment the clan heads find out it will take no time for us to be haunted down.""Continue." Lord Lugard repe

BACK TO IVY'S POV.When I open my eyes the first thing that hits me is the distinct smell of antiseptics and strong cleaning soap. Giving me a hint on my location. And as I let my gaze browse the room I am in the guess becomes set.The hospital.Lying still I cut my eyes to the window where golden rays of sunshine keeps steaming in. A small bird, less than the size of my clenched fist, which is already quite small, merrily perches on the windowsill, chirping cheerfully, before flapping it's wings and continuing on its way.I am alive?"You are awake."I tense up at the sudden voice, without needing to think my brain has already process who the owner of the voice is.Flustered, I shut my eyes, pinning my lips into a thin line."Are you hungry?" I hear the chair next to the bed move and I can imagine him taking a seat.He heaves a sigh, saying in a low voice. "I know you are awake."And I know you know I am awake. But how exactly am i going to face him, what do I say?"I am being ver

After a less than two minutes silence, he finally speaks up. "It is time.""What?" Time for what?He steps out of the building and I start to smell the distinct smell of fuel.He—he wants to set the place on fire!!Before I can think, a fire starts to pick up from a far head, advancing with an alarming speed."Rowan, wake up Rowan." I try to wake Rowan awake, the smoke slipping into my lungs. "Rowan. Rowan. Please Rowan. Wake up we need to leave this place."I try to drag him, hoping to get far away from the fire as I can, but my strength falls behind.I look around. The fire has managed to surround us in such short time and is closing in, leaving us no way to escape."Help." I hug Rowan to my chest, screaming. Inhaling the smoke with each breath, I cough without stop, my head aching badly.I hope they get here in time.************THIRD PERSON'S POV.Outside the burning building, Darius stood with the remaining of his rogue armies, a playful smile on his face as the person he has b

IVY'S POV.There is only two days to go before the siren clan elders arrive.I lie on the bed, feeling a bit feverish, while flipping through a book I had gotten to pass time. There is a knock on the door and I look up, saying softly. "Come in."A maid comes in head bowed as she greets softly. She then goes on to arrange the laundry she is carrying into the basket.After she is done, she casually walks out, lightly brushing past the door.I frown as a white substances falls on the ground behind her, calling out. "Hey, you dropped something."Like she didn't hear, there is no reply and I contemplate for a while, before standing up.Getting closer, I realize that it is a small note. Which is quite suspicious itself.Did she drop it here on purpose?Hesitantly, I bend down to pick it up. Carefully unfolding it.The first word that catches my eyes is the name 'Rowan' which immediately makes my heart jump.My gaze quickly browsing through the note that read. 'Rowan is with me.

Two days later bad news came.While the hunt was put on a hold, the rogues took the opportunity to attack and fully erase more than a dozen packs.The mastermind behind them all has finally shown his face. Known as the clown Alpha, the leader of all the rouges.Now the hunt has to be called on as soon as possible and Emilliano also has to leave.This time, I am moved to Ruby's room. To share it with her until he returns.Although I promised and promised that I will stay put this time, he still arranged some guards as if having Ruby isn't enough.While I am worried, I deeply understand that there is nothing I can do and can only pray he comes back safe."Checkmate. I win." Darius knocks my king from the chess board with his king with a big grin stretched on his lips."What!!" I check, the route. And sure enough, he is pulling tricks again. "You cheated. Your queen can't go that way.""The queen goes all the way." He says smugly and I glare at him."The queen has a wider range of moveme
